Will Smith set the bar for all would-be singers-turned-actors, transitioning seamlessly from music to acting and back again, and after competing on American Idol in 2004, Jennifer Hudson blew fans away in Dreamgirls , winning an Oscar for her breakout role as Effie White. But not all singer-to-actor transitions have been as seamless. Justin Timberlake had hit-and-miss roles in movies like The Love Guru and The Social Network , Britney Spears was slammed for her role in the 2002 movie Crossroads and Beyonce’s roles in Austin Powers in Goldmember and Dreamgirls opened to very soft reviews. This week Lady Gaga proved the triple threat…

WHEN ALI OETJEN SIGNED on to be Australia’s new Bachelorette, she was hopeful of finding the man she would spend the rest of her life with after a string of failed relationships, including an engagement. Now, WHO can reveal that not only is the 32-year-old from Adelaide madly in love, but she is currently planning her wedding day to her new beau, who will be revealed during the season finale of the popular reality show.

She also admits that she’s having a hard time picking out the perfect dress for her special day. “I don’t know,” she laughs, when asked what style of gown she will choose. “I am a romantic type,…

She’s an icon of her generation and for Jennifer Lopez, she’s only getting better with age. With her incredibly varied and rich career spanning over 30 years, it’s hard to pin JLo down and place her in a category. The Bronx-born beauty started off as a Fly Girl dancer on TV show In Living Color and then transitioned to acting, starring in Selena , earning her first Golden Globe nomination, and in Out of Sight with George Clooney. Proving she could do it all, JLo then tried her hand at music and released the first of eight albums, On the 6 , which propelled her to superstardom. Three decades later, at 49, JLo has a production…

“I took such radical enjoyment in expressing who I am” She’s been a fashion icon for years, but pop queen Lady Gaga has solidified herself as a true Hollywood leading lady in a string of sartorial show-stoppers while promoting her new film A Star is Born with co-star and director, Bradley Cooper. There was no sign of that raw meat dress or her usual quirky costumes when the 32-year-old stole the show in a jaw-dropping pink, feathered gown by Valentino Haute Couture at the Venice Film Festival at Sala Grande theatre on Aug. 31. She’s continued to bring her fashion A-game to red carpets around the world, wearing a string of masterpieces. “I took such radical enjoyment in expressing who I am in the most…

This isn’t the first time Zemiro has taken to our screens as the host of a music-based television show. In 2005, Zemiro was cast as the host of RocKwiz , a music trivia show filmed at the historic Esplanade Hotel in Melbourne. Then, in 2009, she was paired with Sam Pang to co-host the Australian coverage of Eurovision. A big part of that job is meeting the contestants, something she remembers fondly. “Sam and I went backstage a lot and interviewed the most wacky, over-the-top extraordinary [people] from around Europe and a lot of them didn’t speak English!” she recalls. Of all the parts of the world she’s seen thanks to that show, she does have a favourite. “I have to say as much as I adored…

KIDS ARE IN THE KITCHEN “Luna is very involved in our cooking life. She sits up at the counter. I think one of the earliest things she learned was ‘hot’ and ‘warm.’ ” MEMORIES ARE SAVED AND SHARED “There’s not too much thought that goes into anything I post on social,” she says. “We just capture moments – and if we see a cute photo, I post it.” PARENTING IS A TEAM SPORT “I’m more strict than John is,” says Teigen. “He will tell Luna no, but if she asks again, it’s a yes. For me, it’s a no, no, no.”…

PEACHY CREAM For a natural flush, apply a cream formula blush, says Katie Holmes’s makeup artist, Genevieve Herr. “Smile to find the apples of your cheeks, then blend some in with your middle finger.” PRIME TIME Choose a hydrating formula and apply a layer before your foundation to achieve a longer-lasting base, says Vincent Oquendo, whose clients include Vanessa Hudgens and Lily Collins. BUFF UP Celebrity makeup artist Vincent Oquendo claims a natural look is all about the finishing touches. After applying foundation, use a cosmetic puff to gently buff your formula. This makes your base look less caked-on. DOUBLE UP Using two concealers is better than one, according to celebrity makeup artist Charlotte Tilbury. After applying foundation, start with a full-coverage liquid that matches your skin tone to help…

Need more War on Waste inspiration? Watch Food Fighter (airs Tues., Oct. 16, 8.30pm; Lifestyle), the surprisingly entertaining – and emotional – story of the 66-year-old former event planner turned Oz Harvest founder and her passionate dream to stop edibles being chucked while some starve. You say you’re an “accidental activist” … When I chose to do this I kinda just thought,“I’ll rescue some food and make sure it goes to feed hungry people” – I didn’t think I was embarking on a path. I think my innocence and stupidity helped create something. Are you getting better at it? If one person’s behaviour is changed, if one person is inspired to action and if food waste becomes as big a topic as…

ALBUMS PAUL KELLY Nature Despite the title, there are no wild surprises on Nature , Kelly’s 24th studio album, just a dozen songs featuring his trademark jangly guitar chords and sandpaper vocals. What is new for the Melbourne singer-songwriter is a change in methodology – the majority of tracks were created as poems first, either his own (‘Little Wolf’) or of more established writers, including Dylan Thomas (‘And Death Shall Have No Dominion’) and Sylvia Plath (‘Mushrooms’), before the tunes were added. (Out Oct. 12) PARCELS Parcels For those familiar with their 2017 Daft Punk-produced single,‘Overnight’, it won’t be a surprise that the first two tracks on the debut album by this Byron Bay-bred, Berlin-based five-piece are the‘Get Lucky’-ish party jams‘Comedown’and‘Lightenup’. And, yes, all the titles are…

Jacqueline McKenzie KATH SINCLAIR The humourless deputy chief of the facility has no time for small talk and lives and breathes the job, even if that means playing second fiddle to the Americans. Steve Toussaint ETHAN JAMES Pine Gap’s chief of facility is much more of a people person than Kath, who he views as an equal. His wife Belle (Simone Kessell) and kids made the move from the US with him.

ORLANDO BLOOM AND KATY PERRY are back on – and not hiding their love this time. When the stars made their red-carpet debut at the Monte Carlo Gala for the Global Ocean in Monaco on Sept. 26, “they were inseparable,” says an onlooker. “They were enjoying the moment, laughing and touching one another. They never stopped holding hands and seemed very much a couple in love.” It’s been 10 months since Bloom, 41, and Perry, 33, sparked rumours of a reconciliation when they were spotted vacationing together in the Maldives, a getaway that came one year after the couple first hit pause on their relationship in early 2017. When they initially split, multiple sources revealed Bloom – who was previously married to model Miranda Kerr – wasn’t ready to settle…

“It’s not my place to judge anybody” Nothing can slow Rebecca Gibney down. Not on TV, where she’s on the run again in Wanted, and especially not in real life, where the 53-year-old actress/producer/creator is just hitting her stride. “I love getting older. I’m more confident in my 50s than I have ever been,” Gibney says emphatically. “I’m more inclined to take risks. I’m more inclined to not really care what other people think. I know I’m a good person.” A good person – who has done some bad things. Part of Gibney’s winning appeal is she’s very relatable. The Gold Logie winner is the first to admit she’s as flawed as the next person. “Have I done bad things in my life? Like we all have? Yes,” she tells…

“I had to speak up for the sake of my children” Walking through the streets of Jaipur, Tracey Spicer was stopped in her tracks when she spotted a toddler in the arms of an older man, and when she looked closer, she was shocked and disturbed to see he was touching her inappropriately.

Speaking to WHO exclusively, the former Channel Ten newsreader discusses becoming an “accidental activist”, setting an example for her children and a possible return to TV. You played a huge part of bringing #MeToo to life in Australia. How did it feel? It was quite overwhelming, but…

HEADBAND OF THE DAY While on holiday in Bali this summer, Legend performed a catchy “Headband of the Day” jingle as Teigen modelled a new design every day.

Three years earlier, Flynn (Cocquerel) and his pals steal the boat Sirocco from opium smugglers and sail to New Guinea in search of gold.

ALL AMERICAN STARRING: Daniel Ezra, Taye Diggs Inspired by a true story, this high school drama uproots promising footballer Spencer James (Ezra) from his home in the South Crenshaw ’hood and transplants him to the ritziest of LA suburbs, Beverly Hills.

But transition from local hero to the unwanted ring-in at the new joint ain’t gonna be easy for Spencer.

While we may know the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have ruffled a few feathers by breaking a number of royal protocols of late, there is a whole family tree filled with young royals who have money at their disposal and aren’t afraid of a little scandal. Meet the entitled offspring who have ventured out of their aristocratic circle to be involved in everything from drug-filled benders to hooking up with rappers and posing nude, on several occasions. Dubbed The Most Beautiful Royal by Tatler magazine, Lady Amelia Windsor, 23, was once caught sunbathing topless in Ibiza.

HISTORY WAS MADE WHEN THE Bachelor Nick Cummins decided to leave the reality show without a partner, instead dumping the final two girls, Brittany and Sophie, in what has been described by avid fans as the most disappointing Bachelor finale ever. Since then Cummins, a former Rugby Union player, has been slammed by the Australian public and the 25 single ladies who spent months vying for his heart, only to have theirs broken on national TV. The onslaught of abuse has seen the 31-year-old’s sister hit back at haters on social media. “Why is honesty so hard for some people,” Cummins sister Bernadette wrote. “I get the disappointment, but the bad mouthing? Really?” Bernadette’s comments come after Cummins spoke to The Project’s Lisa Wilkinson, revealing he believes he made the…

IT’S HARD TO KEEP UP, BUT THE DUCHESS OF Sussex’s estranged sister, Samantha Markle, has been forced away from her royal sibling’s home after an embarrassing attempt to confront Meghan, 37, and her new brother-in-law, Prince Harry, 34, face to face.

“I cook because I love food and I love to eat. It makes me happy to serve people” Chrissy Teigen has never been afraid to speak her mind. When one of her 10 million Twitter followers “respectfully” asked whether the mum of Luna, 2, and Miles, 4 months, was pregnant again as she walked the red carpet at the Emmy Awards on Sept. 17, she immediately shot back. “I just had a baby but thank you for being soooo respectful,” she tweeted. Not that having another child with her husband of five years, EGOT-winner John Legend, is out of the question. “John wants however many kids I want. That’s the good thing with John – he is down for it,” says Teigen, 32. “Are we ready right now? No! I…

New York Fashion Week never disappoints and this year the standouts for stylist Max May were Rodarte and Jonathan Simkhai. “Rodarte did all these beautiful mix of fresh flowers through the hair giving this romantic fantasy-like finish.

There is an innocence yet sophistication that can be replayed out at so many occasions, in a simpler way.” STEP 1 Enhancing your natural texture – whether it be with a diffuser and scrunching a mousse through your hair or doing large braids and setting with a firm-hold hairspray.

DO COASTAL WALKS It’s all about the water in Sydney, and there’s no better way to experience the views than a walk along the coast. Two of the best-known hikes are the Bondi to Bronte walk and on the northside of the harbour, the Spit Bridge to Manly walk. The 4km Bondi to Bronte walk affords spectacular views of the Pacific. You can choose to stop off for a dip at any one of the beaches and, if you’re feeling energetic, continue on to Coogee.

From Manly Wharf, the coastal trail passes Dobroyd Head, perfect for a photo opportunity.…

“Ronald McDonald House made it possible for us to not have to leave our jobs and move to the city” When Tegan and Daniel Parker made the move to the remote town of Kununurra near the Kimberly Region in Western Australia, the expectant couple had no idea their change of scenery was about to place them thousands of kilometres away from the lifesaving treatment their unborn child would soon desperately need. Although Tegan had experienced a straightforward pregnancy without complications, the couple’s world was turned upside down when their firstborn son, Cobber, was born with a range of deformities and a number of emerging health issues.“Within minutes of me giving birth he stopped breathing and was having seizures as well as a bleed on the brain,” says Tegan.“We were flown…

Mental health hasn’t had what you’d call a relatable portrayal on TV. Sure, plenty of shows have tackled mental illnesses and associated disorders, and often in award-winning style – Homeland’s Carrie Mathison (Claire Danes) is a brilliant CIA agent who happens to have bipolar disorder and Jessica Jones’ title character (Krysten Ritter) is a private detective battling post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). But what is it like for everyday people living with a long-term, potentially debilitating mental illness or disorder? Almost 50 per cent of us will experience some form of mental health issue during our lifetime, but we’re not fighting terrorism or curing cancer, we’re just out there living average lives, doing everyday stuff and getting on with things. Refreshingly, new two-part…

The Oscar winner, 68, stars as an enigmatic priest in ensemble thriller Bad Times at the El Royale alongside Jon Hamm, Chris Hemsworth and Dakota Johnson. What intrigued you about this film? It’s the kind I enjoy seeing myself, where you think you’ve got it figured out but you haven’t. You grew up in Hollywood. What words of wisdom did your parents, Dorothy and Lloyd Bridges, have? I remember going off to do a movie when I was still living at home and, as I was getting into my car, my mother would give me a hug and say, “Now Jeff, don’t take any of this too seriously and have fun.” I still think of that often. My wife will give me that same direction even…

The 31-year-old is back on the run as Chelsea in Season 3 of Wanted (starts Mon., Oct. 15 at 8.30pm; Seven). What can we expect from the new season? Lots of action and amazing locations, which is one of the best things – I get to see parts of Australia I have never been to before. Chelsea and Lola [played by Rebecca Gibney] find themselves in prison to start with, and end up in witness protection and on the run again. What’s different this time is we are forced to help other people, so we’ve got a bit of a vigilante mission. What is it like working with Rebecca Gibney? We have gotten really close filming this show because it’s often just the two of us.…
